Key Stats

Tottenham Spurs

Spurs have recorded mixed results in the 2024/25 EPL season, winning 1 out of their last three matches in the Premier League. The hosts have scored 6 goals but conceded 3 goals, 2 more than Arsenal. In their only single match played at home, Tottenham Spurs beat Everton, 4-0, but they will face a bigger challenge against Arsenal who is looking to rival Manchester City for the title this season.

The home team will be without the services of their Brazilian forward, Richarlison and the new rival Dominic Solanke might start the game.

Arsenal

Arsenal have been dominant in their first three games of the premier league despite grabbing only a point from their matchup against Brighton. So far in the season, Arsenal are fourth in the standings, scoring 5 goals, and conceding only once. The stats show the solid defense performance of the Gunners and it will take an extraordinary effort from Spurs for them to lose.

During the international break, Arsenal suffered a series of injuries to their players, with the captain Martin Odegaard doubtful to play. However, influential players out of the derby are Declan Rice, Kieran Tierney, and Mikel Merino. Arsenal have brought onboard a new forward, Sterling, and could make a debut against Spurs.

Prediction

Despite Arsenal suffering a series of injuries, the visitors have enough good players to challenge Spurs who are still rebuilding. The loss of Declan Rice at the midfield will be a huge blow, but Thomas Partey might fill the gaps. The Gunners have only conceded a single goal compared to their opponents.

Even though Spurs have not lost at home, they will struggle to keep the EPL title challengers at bay as they look to bounce back from a disappointing draw at home against Brighton.

Final Pick

Arsenal ML, (+130)
